Fuck yes … everyone in serious chairs and then Tim Russ is like “I can do the interview between my funk band sets, I’ll keep my guitar with me … because I am that fucking cool!”
Cool to see this, I will definitely watch.
Voyager was the first star trek that I got to see from the beginning as it aired. I remember talking about if the Intrepid was more advanced than the Galaxy class. But I’ve always had a mixed relationship with it that has sweetened over time.
Looking back, even as a young kid, my vague feelings were pretty accurate. One the one hand, it was almost certainly the best made star trek to date (where I’m happy to put DS9 in a separate “star base” category compared to the conventional exploration on a ship category). And honestly, probably the best made so far, SNW is yet to clinch that IMO. Janeway and B’Elanna as female characters were awesome, even as a kid I got that. And while the character of seven, for a het-male, had a clear purpose, the character itself, an essentially stubbornly neurodivergent and strong female, again, definitely registered as unique on television.
But the whole hesitancy over committing to actually being stranded in the Delta quad, also was clear to young me. And so I drifted in and out of keeping up with the show, which was always bitter sweet because I’d catch an episode here and there and think “Fuck yes that’s the shit”, even sometimes thinking “this should be the whole show!” (eg, year of hell, obviously, the one where they make an ad-hoc federation in a void). Over time I’ve come to appreciate the former more, and just how much Mulgrew and Janeway did (which this doc will probably focus on to some extent).
